The Outdoor Gourmet

Tomorrow is the first day of Summer, time for swimmin', sweatin', and mosquito bites-- yay! And for the amateur chef, this day means that it's finally time to fire up the outdoor grill. Now for BBQPros like us who have no problem standing in a 4-foot January snow drift just for a pork chop it's simply another day... yes, I'm talking to those who are deadly SERIOUS about their BBQ, because knowing ones way around a glowing briquette means having no need for Royal Chef's "Suggestions for Outdoor Grilling." So set the tongs and skewers aside for awhile and instead let's just flip through this wonderful 50 year old firebox pamphlet to enjoy the fun and festive illustrations that define the mouth watering spirit of cooking out.
